That is just bad bad bad marketing. Nintendo and TPCi would never authorize such unofficial spread of info

Okay, I don't rightly know about their policies, but I would've guessed so. Guess I just got carried away on how credible, in my opinion, that rumor is. Feels like it comes straight from a developer, be there permission or not.

I just can't start a new one since there are no Link Cables around these days. Requiscat in Pace! :´(
(^ Okay, gotta admit it looks better in COLOR! )

The leak (EDIT: okay, rumour, then) looks interesting. It feels very, very credible. And wouldn't it eventually become a leak if some of its contents were officially announced? I think this will happen sooner or later. It could even be that the leaker had the permission to spread this kind of information through an unofficial source. Gives people things to discuss and a lots of time to get used to the upcoming new features (when if they become true).

Gotta say that I like the revealed models much more already than I liked most from Gen V. Extremely cool-looking, they look more organic and natural again. More like types that first come to my mind when "Pokémon" is mentioned.

Yveltal is very cool! If I get a game from this gen, I'll go with Y. Presuming that you can get it in Y. One could think so. :P Their typings are very interesting, too. Both can be strong against each other (Rock beats Flying, yet Ghost beats Psychic), but Xerneas' STAB moves can never be weak against Yveltal, so it's presumably a bit dominating. Great analogy to chromosomes where X, indeed, is the more dominant one, yet Y can become the second one and thus a male is born.

Too bad that there are going to be six legendaries out of 99 new Pokémon. I don't like the high amounts of legendaries; they don't feel that legedary anymore. Although the ratio has been worse. Hope we'll be getting that Poison legendary based on pollution or a pandemia!

I believe what's said there in the rumour, that Sylveon is going to be Normal (or does it say that "Pure Normal" is going to be a type? I don't think so). It doesn't look any other than Normal. Kinda makes sense that this new evo would evolve through that new Bonding system; Eevee evolutions have always based on a new feature the game brings to the table.

until now these are unofficial rumors so I don't think discussing them as if they're real is the best idea. it might make others think this is factual

I'm back on the forums, y'all! Here's my short story!
Please take a look and share your thoughts!

There have been a large amount of people who made convincing "specs" of next gen pokemon games. This guy isn't the first.

And of course the overdue platypus
He could be dual poison type due to the platypus males having a poisonous claw
But that's only males, so maybe a gender split evo?

I thought it was Vampire OCTOPUS, oh well. Water/Dark anyone? It would be funny if they made the Shoe Bill's Bill a Shoe
The Aye Aye could be Dark, I believe there nocturnal. Platypus, Yes. Water/Poison.

I still find this "leak" to be highly unlikely... he refuses to even tell us who he is, then spends 16 pages telling us stuff about the games. Some things would be neat, but others, like the cards legendaries, are cheesy and ridiculous. Plus, to follow in the footsteps of previous games, there should be a third legendary, one which is in the sequel. I hope the chain isn't broken

Well if I were to share confidential information like this on the internet I'd probably want to stay anonymous as well.

Seems like I'm the only one to find this Bonding system something like what they would introduce. It would generally not be liked at first, since it's new and you haven't had the time to get used to it yet. Much like every new thing in Pokémon (or even in life) feels bad at first. The change always feels alien and uncomfortable at start.

Anyway, this "Bonding" goes well together with all this time-traveling, and Sylveon, and Team Gear. Many things just seem to work in the author's possible world... be it truthful or fake. Which makes me at least consider that he (or she) really knows something. Kudos to him/her if he/she just winged it all. A great, somewhat believable story, even if it turns out to be fake, IMO.

And I'd fully buy the time gear analogy since I haven't played any other Pokémon games than these main ones.

And why would they release information this early? They didn't, the anonymous guy obviously breaks his/her vow of silence in this one. :P Or, just trolls, as you say.

This rumor reminds me of the Duskaman one in which was later proven false when Sylveon and the new M16 title was released after almost a month of speculation. This is probably going to be in the same boat when March CoroCoro is released.

It bothers me that that "bank" feature in the so-called "leak" (and I use the term lightly) is lifted straight from the Animal Crossing series.
Come on, if you want your info to at least appear vaguely legit, then use some originality for god's sake.

On a different note, only six legendaries? That number is a little too small for comfort.

The amount of legendaries seeing their track record and the amount of failing in the pokemon decriptions gives it away that is a fake but not much time left for March anyway, most "leakers" said we would have proof of their "leaks" in March so we shall see.

They could actuallly be taken seriously if they didn't put a huge amount of stupid clearly fanmade/fan desired stuff in those "rumors/leaks".

There's no way in hell that stuff he said is true. Whenever Pokemon releases news, it's usually just one or a few things. They wouldn't release information on the whole entire game when it's only the end of February and the games come out in October.

Plus it comes from 4Chan, a very unreliable source at the same time. It's even posted by an "anonymous poster".

Unless this only scratches the surface. Image, they could make a good game with good story. They made a nice little story in BWB2W2, the fanbase is growing up, so why not a nod to us? A great expansive story, and it follows the normal path that the little kids can take but there's more underneath, waiting... I mean, I've been waiting for this since I was 7. I'm 14 now, and it hasn't come true. Could this be the time?

I hope it will, this time around. If all of the Leaders of the Villainous Teams joined up (Giovanni, Maxie, Archie, Cyrus, and Ghetsis) they could do everything.
